Mailplane is a site-specific browser for Gmail built for macOS. It keeps Gmail, Google Calendar and Google Contacts in a dedicated app rather than a browser window, supports an unlimited number of accounts, and adds native features such as menu bar notifications, cross-account search, image annotations, macOS app integrations and Chrome extension support. The current version is Mailplane 4, with Mailplane 5 in development for Apple silicon and Intel Macs.
